About the Book
Allen Forthenbach's
predictable summer vacation is about to change. An innocent bike ride through
his neighborhood unexpectedly turns into an adventure he could have never
dreamt of. He finds himself away from his mom and dad for the first time in his
life, in a place that does not exist on any modern map. A foreign and mysterious place,
that appears desolate and deserted, the land of ancient magical
etchings, the land of the Giggleglyphs. Fortunately,
Allen meets Professor Alfred Xcovar Gigglestone, a renowned archeogeogigglepologist.
Together, they are thrust into a wild adventure neither had expected or
anticipated. On their journey, they will experience the power of the Giggleglyphs, ride the raging flood waters of a dry river
bed, witness warriors transform into god-like beings, sail a volcanic sea, only
to realize that they are indeed, lost in Etchitopia. For a peek at the Giggleglyphs

About the Author
David Finstrom lives
in California and grew up in Colorado. The Southwest, with its many unique
people, places, and exciting adventures, is his inspiration. Imagination and
story telling seem to be a natural part of that territory. Writing Lost in Etchitopia, a Giggleglyph Adventure,
is a result of David's passion for native people's glyphs and art styles.
Combine that passion with David's creative outlook and the idea of a nine-year
old boy discovering the secrets of a lost land, through the magical drawings
left by ancient artists, seems strangely logical.
Mr. Finstrom is
currently working on the next Giggleglyph Adventure.
